Ok this is what you're going to want to do, take your friends computer, assuming its a laptop, and THROW it out a window. If you are in a one story home, go to your local mall, bring the laptop to the highest floor, and drop it.

On the real, reinstall the game, try a diff browser, make sure his computer can handle AoS? Green_BigSmile

From what I found after doing a search on google is that he may have the wrong version installed.

You are neither funny nor helpful.

If this happens on all servers, then my guess would be that he's got the wrong version installed.

Well jokes on you prune already said its the wrong version installed before you, so YOUR post was the most unhelpful here.

The very advice of not listening to you is helpful enough in my opinion.

Well I told him to re install the game, try a diff browser, make sure is computer can handle aos, which is more helpful then repeating already stated information. SO Blue_Glasses

Considering that there were 2 posts with suggestions, one of them being what I think is correct, and the other being a bunch of time-consuming suggestions that would do nothing to help the problem, I felt inclined to save them from your post.

For the first, that is complete bullshit. He said in his post that the game throws an error at him, not his browser; plus,

now THAT is bullshit. The very point of using the Voxlap libraries is that all (yes, all) computers are able to "handle" it. Or at least you have to travel back to the early 90's to find an old MS-DOS PC which doesn't support SSE or 3DNow!.

Secondly, no one was repeating anything. Rakiru just made guess; he was actually very helpful by implying to Prune that he shouldn't follow your advice(s).

Well I said re install the game which is better then saying "Your post was not helpful" and then say to check the version installed which was already stated. Also, when I said check your browser and computer, It was just merely tips, general help. Could work, could not, still helpful knowledge.

Sigh. I didn't say all of your advices; Just the ones that Rakiru implied against.
And now that we're at it, what exactly is wrong with repeating information? That could only possibly merely bring us closer to a solution.

EDIT: 30 posts! Yay!

Because this whole argument is about how unhelpful my post was, so when he repeated something already mentioned, it seems a bit more unhelpful. Not that hard, I dont know why your getting so Blue_Pistol Green_Pistol2

To be fair, you stating that it was useless was, if anything, more useless. Now, if you want to continue this, can we please do it in a PM instead of bitching in this thread?
